    Bacquacil to Chlorine conversion troubles

    [The last thing we want to do is complicate the process, add to your already growing frustration, or see you waste money. Remember you can't even try to maintain an FC of 15 during your extended weekend because you don't have the test kit portion to test FC at 15 ppm. Of course a drain is an...

    Bacquacil to Chlorine conversion troubles

    Attached are pictures of my pool. The water is crystal clear, even in the deep end. The pictures my show some shadows that make it appear it is not clear, but it is. It's difficult to get a good picture. - - - Updated - - - - - - Updated - - -

    Bacquacil to Chlorine conversion troubles

    Well...I actually changed the media to glass at the time I opened the pool, before conversion. The pool store this was ok to do. I think I had a Bacq reading of about 30 when I started the process. I stared the conversion of Friday and by Monday, pool was clear and no Bacq. I mentioned to...

    Bacquacil to Chlorine conversion troubles

    The picture I posted is not a good picture. I took it at 6am this morning, with no sun out. IMO, the pool is very clear and I can see very well to the bottom in the deep end. It is not cloudy or hazy. I will try to post another picture later.

    Bacquacil to Chlorine conversion troubles

    I ordered the test kit but expected delivery is not until next wednesday which is a bummer because I have 4 days straight starting Friday to dedicate to the pool. CYA was allot higher, can't remember what, but I've vacuumed to waste so much and refilled the pool it has dropped. All readings...

    Bacquacil to Chlorine conversion troubles

    Pool Store had me add stabilizer, I think, after I got a zero bacquacil reading. Trying to figure how to post a picture, but pool is clear and I can see the deep end.

    Bacquacil to Chlorine conversion troubles

    When I do the pool math for 20,000 gallons to raise FC to 15, it says 624 oz of 6% bleach. Did I do that correctly? And should I target FC at 15 or 20, since CPA is at 47?

    Bacquacil to Chlorine conversion troubles

    I started my conversion at the beginning of May and I got the reaction expected with all the pretty colors in the pool. I've had some complications along the way with phosophates, which led to an algae bloom, which I have since dealt with. The pool is clear, and does not register a Bacqucil...
